88 Cougar weatherstripping

Now I know I could just go the route and pick up some universal kits and go to town on the car but I wanted to check here first and see if there was a site/vender that was better equipped than what I had seen.

We took our cougar to the car wash and had a few leaks coming in through most of the windows. So we figured going through the whole car and replacing all of the weatherstripping is the best option (moon roof, windows, windshield/backglass)

Any help is appreciated

There's a nice complete set on ebay, but it's over $400

Steele Products makes nice stuff, that's what's in the eBay link. Unfortunately, they don't make the actual window seal ... yet. Everything in that kit is a door to body seal. I've been hounding them and begging them to accept a used set from me for copying.

For 400 I would hope it would be nice stuff :-)

Anyone make just the 87 T Bird windshield rubber or just "universal" trim.... I'm going to need a new windshield sometime soon, says some Lincoln's are the same as T Bird?...
